Archarcharch Gets His Fifth Winner at Del Mar

+ARCATURE (c, 2, Archarcharch–K. O. Kitty, by Tale of the Cat), a $62,000 FTKJUL yearling, developed into a $250,000 OBSAPR 2-year-old after breezing a furlong in :10.1. Let go at 5-1 in this career bow, the bay saved ground near the back of the pack as the heavy favorite doled out early splits of :22.94 and :47.21. Tipped out at the half, he began a steady advance up the outside and was let loose at the top of the stretch under a perfectly timed ride from Hall of Famer Gary Stevens. Arcature was quickly pursued by Recalibrating (Malibu Moon), but kept on finding to hold off that rival by a half-length and become the fifth winner for his freshman sire (by Arch). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0.
